According to a recent report by The Wall Street Journal, Nintendo’s upcoming gaming system, codenamed NX, will not run Android after all.
This update arrives after an insider told Nikkei, a respectable Japanese business magazine, that the NX would indeed be powered by Google’s open source OS in order to attract more third-party developers.
A Nintendo spokesperson tells the Wall Street Journal:
“There is no truth to the report saying that we are planning to adopt Android for NX.”
It is known, however, that Nikkei has a pristine track record for getting its reports correct. Moreover, Nintendo has also denied many early reports that have ended up being accurate.
